#love is stored in the hands

[acepalindrome]

One of my favorite panels in Dungeon Meshi is the one where everyone is gathered around and hugging Senshi after the griffin soup, but my other favorite is right before that, when Senshi starts to cry and you can see everyone’s hands reaching for him.

Just immediately going to him. Senshi is the stable, supportive figure through so much of the story, but the second he starts crying everyone immediately jumps in to comfort him. It’s just so nice to see him being given so much care and love from his little found family!

And I've heard of a love that comes once in a lifetime / And I'm pretty sure that you are that love of mine // 'Cause I'm in a field of dandelions /Wishing on every one that you'll be mine

Fantasy Indies Feb Masterlist

I decided to make a masterlist of the prompts and my responses to them from #fantasyindiesfebruary I did on my Twitter this month! Prompt list is below, no offsite links (except for one song rec) ♥️

I plan on participating for the month of March as well, so if you're interested, feel free to check it out or join in on the fun! (And check out the other amazing authors that participate too, everyone is really sweet 🥺)

Introduce yourself & WIP

N. Opal here! I'm a hobby romantasy author with a love for world building! I love all things high fantasy, magic and most of all, pirates 🏴‍☠️ My current WIP is the "As A Stranger Or A Friend?" (pirate romantasy) series!

Favorite romance tropes

🫂Friends to lovers

🤝Marriage pact (hit or miss)

🌌Forbidden love/star-crossed

🎭Unrequited love

🥈Second chance

🧲Opposites attract 

🖇️Forced proximity (hit or miss)

Free Friday

My current WIP/series AASOAF is actually a reimagining of two nameless, unpublished original novels and a series of companion short stories I'd been working on for about 8/9mos. Both versions are near and dear to me ♥️

Snippet Saturday

What does your MC think about love?

Mariel: Believes she will never experience love because of her circumstances but pines for it more than she realizes.

Axtapor: Knows it's real but has no idea of how it feels or how important it really is to him.

Broken hearts in WIP

I am afraid to report that all characters are in one state of heartbreak or another 😅 (and over different types of love 🥲)

WIP Love Interest

Mariel & Axtapor (of course) with a little trouble on the side. 🥲

There is a new couple that I can't mention at all bc MAJOR SPOILER.

And an old couple that I also can't say much about bc SPOILER.

Forgiveness or revenge?

REVENGE ⚔️

No further details will be provided 😌

Whumpy scene

Free Friday

The WIP in my bio is a little misleading 🙈 AASOAF 2 is actually already finished. It has been for about month. It is currently in the hands of my close friends who always get to read my stuff first 🥺

Snippet Saturday

You’re invited to a Valentines Ball, what are you wearing?

Definitely wearing this, I love a beautiful sleeve!

WIP romance aesthetic

All I can say is that there are three of them and NO ONE is having fun yet. 🙈

Romantic scene in WIP

There is really only one romantic scene in my WIP (so far!) and I can't share it bc MAJOR SPOILERS. I guess I like making my characters suffer more than I thought😅

Favorite bookish couple

Its gotta be Jane Eyre and Mr. Rochester for me 🥺

Advice for writing romance

People in love still argue, fight, disagree, challenge one another, and misunderstand each other. So if I had any advice to give it's that people are STILL people after they fall in love. Write them that way!

Free Friday

For today I thought I'd share a little bit about me 🥺 wrote up this intro post on my tumblr about who I am as a writer, what I do, content I have worked on, and things I'd like to try next!

Snippet Saturday

Sweet gestures in WIP

This one is from AASOAF 1 bc the one that I wanted to share from my current WIP was so redacted it was unreadable 😭

Favorite love song

this was a tough one bc apparently i have a lot of favorites but Eydie Gorme's, Historia de un Amor, takes the cake!

MC’s dream date

They'd plan a picnic together! 

Mariel would cook the food because Axtapor likes her cooking very much and prefers to eat it over anything else. He would take them out to their spot on horseback because she enjoys riding. And they'd probs play card games to pass the time 🥺

Romantic bookish photo

This poem I recieved a few months ago 🥺

Do you like Happily Ever After, Happy For Now, or Tragic Ending?

i'm a sap, i love a happily ever after, esp if the characters have been through hell and back 🥺

Free Friday

AASOAF 2 moodboard

Snippet Saturday

What is your preferred spice level?

If the characters are compelling and I buy into their relationship, I'm down with any level of spice. As far as writing, anything goes! ❤️‍🔥

What are your romance book recs?

I don't have any, unfortunately (aside from the classics), so I will stalk everyone else's posts for some recs 👀

Monthly Wrap Up

This months biggest accomplishment was meeting so many writers! (Here and on Tumblr), it's been so cool 🥹 I also did some solid work on my WIP, shared lore, and tried many new things (moodboards, synopsis writing) ⭐

Halloween prompts year 2 day 10

Danny groaned, blearily raising his head from the nest of blankets and pillows he had made in his apartment. He had smelled something strange.

Something strong enough to wake him from his sleep. Danny got up and stumbled to the front door, cursing his luck for getting a fever so soon into his interdimentional road trip.

Peering out of his open doorway he saw a little kid shivering in the cold, badly hidden behind two trash cans in the mouth of an alley. Danny didn't think twice. In fact he didn't think at all. It wasn't uncommon for an Omega to smell a child who didn't have the scent of another Omega on them and immediately claim that child as thier own, and seeing as his home dimension had exclusively Omegas...let's just say there's a lot of drama in family court and a lot of laws pertaining to this.

So of course the next thing Danny knows is that the kid was bundled up inside his very soft and comfy makeshift nest before Danny passed out.

For the next week Danny had this mysterious fever and he acted like a parent on autopilot, barely conscious as he instinctually cared for the little boy. He made them food and cut them up into tiny bits to feed his baby and if it was handfoods like pizza rolls or sandwich triangles, Danny would hold him in his arms and rock his back and forth, humming softly as his child ate.

Eventually his heat ended (note that omegas from his world don't have heats, they don't have alphas and so they don't even know what a heat is) and Danny was very surprised he has a child in his house. But he and the baby are very emotionally attached to one another. When Danny asked what the little kids name was (and man this kid was little) the kid stared at him in the way little kids do before muttering the world "Clone" followed by what sounded suspiciously like a serial number.

Danny decided, nah. His kid now. Sucks to be the bioparent cause Danny doesn't wanna share.

Somewhere in the city, the bats were freaking out. They had raided a lab and discovered not only had one of them been cloned, but the clone had escaped and no one knew where it was. Cue panicked parental frenzy.

#halloween prompts #dpxdc #omegaverse #cause i love to torment you #which bat is the bio parent of the cute little baby and what will they do to try to see thier kid #i keep imagining damian with his katana demanding Danny to hand over Graysons child #or Jason staring listlessly at Danny having a happy upbeat convo with the baby of his hip as he shops at the grocery store #or tim trying to figure out how to 1. tell bernard/Kon/whoever hes dating he has a kid now and 2. how to get close to said kid when the #other parent wants to maul him if he gets too close #also consider if that track down the kid to rhe nest and nearly get mauled #maybe the bio parent can get into the nest sfely due to dannys lizard brain thinking: this is my child. this is thier child. we share a #child. therefore we must be mates. and just lets them in and rubs his sent glands all over the bat before wrapping them in nest #the bats also treat danny like a bioweapon or a walking pheromone bomb and are guarding the perimeter of the building

Part 4 of the "Dazai and Chuuya being competitive, mutually pining disasters" comics!

<- (Previous part) (Next part) ->

Most of this one is under the cut because it got LONG

#I'm gonna make at least one more little thing for this because it's eating my brain lol #possibly two because I have a compulsion to resolve literally everything possible #side note: that kid remains convinced that he saw real-life Westley and Buttercup in the grocery store for a long time #...also if I had the hands for it I would redraw this whole thing from the outsider POV because i think it would be hilarious — #man in hat shakes a package of fish around in a silent rage and then sadly puts it down and wanders around looking intensely depressed #until suddenly another guy #very out of breath #runs in and passionately declares his love for hat-man #life in bsd's Yokohama can never be normal #bsd #bsd chuuya #bsd dazai #my art #bungou stray dogs #soukoku #skk

You know, I always wondered why Raven’s bracers don’t actually protect her hands. As a swordwoman, it’s crucial to keep the actual back of her hand protected.

But now, but now I see where they went.

Summer’s hand guards are the perfect shape, color, and skeletal build to match Raven’s. The fact that the concept of her weapon covers both of her hands perfectly when concept arts are usually not so obstructed is VERY telling on the importance of these red guards she has on. Either the guards Summer wears were meant to complete the set Raven currently owns, or Raven wears her bracers in honor of the ones Summer used to have. Either way, they’re so fucken wifecore and I never fucken lose ROSEBIRD NATION HOW ARE WE FEELING!!!

#i never yall just watch we are getting rosebird crumbs next weekend #i had prepared clown makeup in anticipation of Summer Rose appearance this ep AND WE GOT IT!!!! #AND THEN WE ALSO GOT CLEAR ROSEBIRD CRUMBS IN HER DESIGN!! #love is stored in the hands your honor and that includes hand armor #rwby #rosebird #summer rose #raven branwen #rwby v9 #rwby spoilers

GUYS . make gifts for your friends. MAKE them. You can suck at art and crafts and everything but just. make something. a letter, a drawing, a collage, whatever, it's just so tender no matter what it is. and they'll remember it. no matter what it is. Okay ? Okay.

#maybe im too pedantic but ive NEVER found a perfect gift for someone in a store. its always the things i can make with my hands #which . well i think if the soul is where love is stored then the hands are that through which love is channelled #if you don't know how to love look at your hands. look at your hands
